Mexican Pizza Dip

Back when I was married to my baby girl’s father, we found ourselves in Florence, SC for a long weekend to attend a convention.  This was MANY moons ago, in fact, I think my baby girl was probably a little more than a year old, so maybe about 15 years ago.

Her dad and I were not run of the mill restaurant goers, we always liked to find the hole in the wall places … the places only the locals knew.  We would ask the people at the hotel where THEY went to eat, and most of the time we found […]

Success: Sheri

I discovered hCG in 2008 and have been a member on Biz’s forum since then and the support there is wonderful, but having her personally guide me through her new plan and help me navigate doing hCG through the holidays made all the difference in my results! I’ve done hCG during the holidays before and I didn’t succeed – I needed a “do-over.” This time it was actually easy! The First Step plan, combined with short breaks and planning for special events, was exactly what I needed to get me through the holidays and succeed in my goals. I […]

2016 Word of the Year: Breathe

2016 Word of the Year: Breathe

Sigh.

I sigh a lot.

So much so that people I have been around at different times in my life will say, what’s wrong?

I am like, um, nothing.

But you just sighed.

I did not.

Yes, you did.

Ok … so I have this thing — I sigh.  A lot.

I never really attached any meaning to it … just thinking to myself; ok, I guess I must sigh a lot.  So what.

Until I had the opportunity to go to an acupuncturist a few years ago.

While doing the preliminary intake interview, he mentioned to me, do you realize you sigh a lot.

I said, so I have been […]

5 Tips for Getting Through the Holidays

5 Tips for Getting Through the Holidays

Did you know Albert Einstein’s memory was notoriously poor?  It’s been said he wouldn’t even memorize his own phone number.

With a brain used for advancing revolutionary accomplishments in Physics, I choose to believe he was very smart about using his energy for things that mattered to him.

I do that a lot … choose not to remember some things in order to concentrate on more important things. If I don’t compartmentalize certain things, I can go furiously fast from sane to complete overwhelm in a matter of minutes.

The holiday season can do that to people … heck, it can do that […]

Word of the Year ~ 2016

Word of the Year ~ 2016

Handle them carefully, for words have more power than atom bombs. ~ Pearl Strachan Hurd

It’s that time of year when we start to think about resolutions.  What we want new and different in the coming year.

This year, instead of a list of resolutions, how about choosing a Word of the Year.

This focus word will serve as a touchstone for all the changes you want to see in the coming months.

Why the shift from resolutions? Because they don’t work.  You know why?  Because they address only one part of your life.  The DO level.

It’s the:

I will DO this thing […]

hCG Success: Tara

Before I worked with Biz, I was all over the place trying a different thing every day and not really being clear about what worked and what didn’t.

Working with Biz gave me direction and kept me on track. I have a tendency to be more accountable to others than to myself, so having her there provided me with that. I knew I had to be honest about what was going on with me (what’s the point in doing otherwise).

While working with Biz I learned that I was not being a friend to my body. I sometimes still have to remember […]

Pumpkin Sernikis

Pumpkin Sernikis

First of all, what the heck is a serniki?

In reality, Serniki is a village in Poland, according to Wikipedia.  ::giggle::

To be frank, I really can’t remember when I first heard the word serniki, but I do remember when I did it was in reference to a small cheesecake.  When you look up cheesecake on Wikipedia, you will find all the different names cheesecake is called around the world, and in Poland they are called sernik.

No matter what they are called, they are a delish dessert that has one of the best features known to man when it involves dieting.

Portion […]

Has the hCG Diet Bubble Burst?

Has the hCG Diet Bubble Burst?

Like sands through an hourglass, so are the days of our lives. ~ Unknown

Tick … tick … tick …

Time passes so quickly.

I can’t believe in just a few short months, I will have been involved with hCG for nine years!

And even though I have all this experience, I can still learn something new.

More about that in a moment …

Even though I have been less active online over the last couple of years, it doesn’t mean my research has stopped.  It’s in my blood.  I still search online daily. Recently, I checked if the hCG community is still active.

I could tell […]
